The Black Collection (TP001)
22 Jan 2008 • B.A.B. FashionYes, our finally awaited 1st batch of clothes is in. Apologies for the long wait. However, there’s a bit of hiccup. The shipment only delivered 1 item. But nevertheless, this is the star piece of the batch! The others will be in March as the Spring Collection. This piece is really my favorite.
It’s what I call ultra value for money! Imagine 1 piece of apparel but you can wear it in many different ways – as a skirt, as a halter top, as a tube top, as a….!!! I know alot of you B.A.B. Girls out there do not like to wear sleeveless! I am sure you will change your attitude towards wearing sleeveless after wearing this piece! And mind you, I am a UK 20 – 22!!! So….if you are not liking this piece cos it’s sleeveless, just you wait….heheh 
Also, keep a lookout in my next post for how to wear and jazz up this piece for CHINESE NEW YEAR!
Top 3 Ways of Wearing TP001:
- As a Halter Neck Top - this is very flattering. For ladies with broad shoulders or small breasts or anyone who would like to bring the centre attraction to the cleavage, this is the way to wear it!
- As an Off-Shoulder Top - If you have big arms or have droopping shoulders, wearing it this way will cover up part of the arms and broaden your shoulders. It looks very elegant too! I love to wear it this way myself.
- As a Skirt – I love the height it adds to me. This is due to the symmetrical cut at the hemline. I look taller and more stylish this way.
The below picture (click on it for a bigger view) will show you the many ways to wear this piece of apparel.
Here are some reasons why I love this piece and some points for you to note:
- Our stock is in pure black
- We have selected the material such that it doesn’t cling onto the human body
- I have this made slightly longer so that it covers till the lower tummy so it’s kinda like a dress-top
- It’s of empire cut, meaning from the under bust, it’s a little bit flare so it doesn’t cling onto the tummy, if you have one
- If you are wearing this as a skirt, the hem is of symmetrical cut, meaning it will add height to you!
- The different ways to wear it as a top accentuates only the best, that’s what the smocking is for
- It is a free-PLUS-size, fits sizes from UK18 – UK24 (my size is UK20 – UK22)
- This is the design of the local fashion designer, Emerald Seah who owns the brand Artiris and has a shop in Ang Mo Kio Hub and a franchise in Far East. More about the designer coming soon…
- Price: $55.90

Hi, Neisha.
Delivery to Jamaica will take 10-16 working days. So say we work backwards…Ideally, I should send out your purchase by end May – 29 May. This is to give leeway to unexpected delivery delays, if any.
You should then make your purchase and payment at least 3 working days before 29 May. Delivery will cost an additional SGD29.90 to Jamaica. It will be by air parcel. You can refer to http://www.speedpost.com.sg/downloads/ratecard/WWAP%20Promotion%20Flat%20Rates.pdf
If you are keen, you can register as a member at http://bab.com.sg/be-a-bab-member/. Members are entitled to discounts. Thereafter, make your purchase and I will advise final cost by email.
You may pay by PayPal, Western Union or Moneygram.
Let me know if you need further assistance. Thanks.

Hi.. when I shop.. i would buy size 18-20 at DP, however what size should I get at your site. Abt the The Black Collection (TP001), I am keen to buy, but could I fit into it and could I buy at the shop?

Hi Renee,
you will be a 3X/4X…some sizes are 3X(UK18) or 4X(UK20)..while others are 3X(UK18-20), that will depends on the type of clothings. if you prefer this type of clothing to fit looser or tighter or just nice. Yes, you will be able to fit into TP001. You can purchase it online. We are an online shop.
